Linked by a covered walkway leading to the door of the new Cork Airport terminal, this hotel could not be handier for the time-pressed traveller.
More than just convenient, however, this Cork hotels also got an unusual and very funky style - and even humour; it is virtually an aviation museum - albeit with the exhibits arranged for continued use, and mixed with some very strange companion pieces - and the aviation theme that pervades the hotel extends to the rooms, which are available in Economy, Business and First Class categories.
True to the original thinking behind this hotel, accommodation is designed to please, with the aim of making it an destination rather than just a convenient airport hotel - and the tone is calmer than in the public areas.
Facilities are considerately tailored to travellers' needs and include a Pullman Lounge where the business traveller can book a seat, take a shower, check emails, read in comfort and have a bite to eat - and an on-site spa where you could while away many an hour of delays.
The Italian restauarant, Olivo, is open for all meals and popular locally for its Sunday lunch.
Special features include free high speed Wi/Fi throughout the hotel, light breakfast from 3.30am and free parking.
